“After Clara’s first day at St. Luke’s last year, she ran out to the car yelling “I HAD THE BEST DAY!” What a happy surprise – and deep relief – to hear this from our timid child! As parents we all feel that pressure to “get it right” with where we send our children to spend their days outside of the house. We are so grateful to have Clara in such a tightknit, loving community, where she was immediately made to feel like she belongs and has the support to grow, explore and thrive.”

What are the benefits of attending a PK-8 school for middle school?

There are a number of reasons why we believe the PK-8 model is beneficial for all students, including those in middle school (grades 5-8).

Developmentally appropriate environment: Without the distractions of a high school, your child can participate in a learning environment that's aligned with their needs.
Teacher-student mentorship: With small class sizes and the extended time frame of a student's journey in our PK-8 environment, students forge stronger relationships with their teachers, which studies show positively impact academic performance.
Fewer transitions: Students at St. Luke's go through fewer transitions compared to those in traditional elementary and separate middle schools. Transitions can be stressful events that disrupt academic progress and social stability. By minimizing these changes, St. Luke's fosters a smoother developmental path.
Leadership opportunities: Older St. Luke's students can take on leadership roles that might not be available in a larger middle or high school. This can be particularly impactful for their personal development, offering a sense of responsibility and accomplishment at a younger age.
